Our Shea Butter Love Affair

We love Shea Butter so much its actually a bit of an obsession. All our products are imbued with the life-affirming and an elixir of life type ingredients. It has so many excellent properties. We also include a jar of shea butter or body butter in many of our home bath kits. 

We have worked hard to treat the shea butter, so you have the best product with all the nutrients. 

Shea Butter is made up of fatty acids.

  • Oleic acid 
  • Stearic acid 
  • Linoleic acid 
  • Palmitic acid 
  • Lauric acid
  •  Linolenic acid
  • Arachidic acid 

These fatty acids and related vitamins are what provide the magic. Whether its strengthening hair and numerous benefits to your skin. 

So what products have shea butter? Well, you would be surprised to find out how applicable shea butter is to add to all of your favorite beauty products. 

 

It's in your shower gel and shampoo, hand cream, moisturizer, conditioners, balms and body butters.

Nobody likes waking up in the morning with a breakout. Shea butter is the most non-clogging non-comedogenic cosmetic butter. It's down to its concentration of antioxidants, vitamins, and fatty acids. Its what makes body butter and other cosmetics so amazing. 

Shea butter comes from the shea nut. It grows in several countries in Africa, most commonly in Ghana, Nigeria, and Uganda. The nut is the protector of this potent oil that, through a careful process of extraction becomes a butter type substance than can be added to all of your beauty products.  

 Because of the various sources of shea butter and types of shea butter available, it was a project from the get-go to find consistently high-quality shea butter for our products. We also committed to fair trade and clean-sourced products, so finding a supplier amongst political and social unrest was a challenge.
